Paper Ship

Drifting away to adventure Her little paper ship waves goodbye The forest trees are companions Along with the river and sky Floating with the leaves Courageously away Following the sun To even better days Little Rosie smiles, hopeful That her friend makes it all right A ship longs for the ocean Just like a bird longs for the sky Floating with the leaves Courageously away Following the sun To even better days May the wind stay strong And the sunlight ablaze May no rain do you wrong And may we meet again someday Someday My little paper My little paper ship My little paper My little paper ship May long be its trip
